I agree with most of what Lederman says, although he's wrong about the Gatti-Ward trilogy. Only their first fight was a "blood and thunder" fight. The second showed a completely changed Gatti who won easily with one-sided science and poise, but not nearly as "active" as the first fight. And the third fight was a "one- sided-walk-over" for Gatti, about a 2 on a scale of 1-10.Comment

Lederman is not biased in favor of certain fighters, such as Lampley with his HBO house fighter shilling or everlasting man-love for Barrera. Lederman, however, favors aggression too much, even when the aggressor is eating most of the clean punches. For instance, giving Hatton 4 of the first 7 rounds against Mayweather. He also had Jesus Chavez beating Floyd after 7. He had Toney-Jirov even.
Other times, his cards are plain bizarre. Didn't he have Williams beating Quintana in their first fight?Comment

Usually Lederman is pretty easy to read, with like 90%+ accuracy I can call who he will score a round for before it comes up, people always love it when I do that at parties. Occasionally I am wrong but for him to not pick the aggressor it is generally plain as day (maybe even beyond that) the other guy is out boxing the aggressor.Lederman is not biased in favor of certain fighters, such as Lampley with his HBO house fighter shilling or everlasting man-love for Barrera.
